Jogos digitais como estratégia de aprendizado: uma proposta de aplicação para o ensino da administração pública

O estudo objetivou dimensionar o valor estratégico dos Serious Games e da Gamificação como alternativas pedagógicas em favor do aprendizado sobre Gestão Pública. De cunho exploratório e descritivo, o estudo, visa fornecer algum conhecimento sobre ferramentas alternativas de apoio ao ensino da Gestão Pública, tomando o papel dos jogos digitais como instrumentos contributivos aos educadores. A metodologia aplicada é fenomenológica, pois buscou extrair significados por intermédio dos sujeitos, a fim de obter uma maior compreensão do fenômeno de aprendizagem baseada em jogos digitais. A investigação foi conduzida por pesquisas bibliográficas e de campo, na qual a coleta de dados foi obtida por meio de entrevistas por pautas. Ao todo, a amostra contemplou 18 sujeitos envolvidos com games em educação, baseando-se em três critérios: pesquisa, desenvolvimento e aplicação. Foram analisados artigos e publicações de autores brasileiros, constatando-se a baixa produção sobre o tema, principalmente, de cunho qualitativo sobre ao assunto. Além disso, observou-se uma presença de livros e publicações em língua inglesa muito superior às produções nacionais, por essa razão, a pesquisa buscou ampliar a discussão sobre o tema. Como resultados das entrevistas, foram destacados benefícios cognitivos, pedagógicos, interacionais com base nas teorias interacionistas de Vygotsky e Piaget, nas quais os jogos digitais formam espaços de aprendizagem e interação, cabendo, contudo, aos educadores, a escolha de empregá-los ou não em salas de aula. Os resultados também revelam alguns problemas de implementação, tais como: (1) falta de investimentos em treinamento dos professores, (2) falta de infraestrutura nas instituições de ensino, (3) integração curricular, (4) acesso à infraestrutura/tecnologia em comunidades ribeirinhas fora dos grandes centros urbanos, (5) adequação ao público-alvo, pois nem todos os estudantes se interessam por jogos eletrônicos. Ao final, iniciativas do MEC têm propiciado a busca de novas ferramentas e tecnologias que venham a incrementar as práticas pedagógicas, e nesse sentido, os jogos digitais adequam-se a esta realidade exigida, pois trazem consigo novas reflexões acerca do ensino, do papel dos professores, e de novas possibilidades no ensino de Gestão Pública. O valor estratégico dos games revela-se como uma ferramenta pedagógica propiciadora de espaços de aprendizado alicerçados em: interatividade, imersão e interconectividade, responsáveis por tornarem os aluno sujeitos ativos no processo educacional.

A arbitragem nos conflitos envolvendo a administração pública : uma proposta de regulamentação

Em 26 de maio de 2015, foi sancionada a Lei nº 13.129/2015, que promoveu verdadeira reforma na Lei nº 9.307, 23 de setembro de 1996, a Lei de Arbitragem. Dentre as modificações introduzidas no direito arbitral brasileiro, possivelmente a mais importante delas é aquela prevista no § 1º do art. 1º da Lei de Arbitragem, que passou a admitir indistintamente o uso, pelo Estado, da via arbitral para dirimir conflitos relativos a direitos patrimoniais disponíveis, permitindo a inserção da correspondente cláusula compromissória nos contratos administrativos em geral e, inclusive, em convênios, contratos de gestão e termos de cessão e de permissão de uso. A presente dissertação de mestrado tem por objetivo, precisamente, o de permitir uma melhor compreensão do alcance da regra prevista no art. 1º, § 1º, da Lei nº 9.307/96, verdadeiro marco regulatório da arbitragem no setor público, e propor, concretamente, linhas de ação voltadas para fomentar o emprego do procedimento arbitral nos conflitos envolvendo a Administração Pública, em especial a regulamentação do instituto no seio da burocracia estatal.

A linguagem da administração pública: um estudo sobre a abordagem pós-moderna

Over the last decades, a growing number of scholars from humanities have explored ideas from the postmodern perspective. At the international level, few studies have been undertaken in the public administration field. In Brazil, few articles have been influenced by postmodern ideas. This article presents and discusses theoretical analysis influenced by postmodern ideas in the public administration field, concluding that this appropriation is difficult but worthwhile, especially regarding methodological and analytical issues which may strengthen public administration research.

Assédio moral na administração pública e a responsabilidade civil do estado

The social and economic changes of the last decades have enhanced the dehumanization of labor relations and the deterioration of the work environment, by the adoption of management models that foster competitiveness and maximum productivity, making it susceptible to the practice of workplace bullying. Also called mobbing, bullying can occur through actions, omissions, gestures, words, writings, always with the intention of attacking the self-esteem of the victim and destroy it psychologically. In the public sector, where relations based on hierarchy prevail, and where the functional stability makes it difficult to punish the aggressor, bullying reaches more serious connotations, with severe consequences to the victim. The Federal Constitution of 1988, by inserting the Human Dignity as a fundamental principle of the Republic, the ruler of the entire legal system, sought the enforcement of fundamental rights, through the protection of honor and image of the individual, and ensuring reparation for moral and material damage resulting from its violation. Therefore, easy to conclude that the practice of moral violence violates fundamental rights of individuals, notably the employee's personality rights. This paper therefore seeked to analyze the phenomenon of bullying in the workplace, with emphasis on the harassment practiced in the public sector as well as the possibility of state liability for harassment committed by its agents. From a theoretical and descriptive methodology, this work intended to study the constitutional, infra and international rules that protect workers against this practice, emphasizing on the fundamental rights violated. With this research, it was found that doctrine and jurisprudence converge to the possibility of state objective liability for damage caused by its agents harassers, not forgetting the possibility of regressive action against the responsible agent, as well as its criminal and administrative accountability.

O comprometimento da alta administração com a implantação do novo modelo, considerado um fator crítico, não ocorreu de forma linear, gerando diferenças no grau de implantação do modelo entre as Secretarias do Estado.
